This class covers the public safety response to any transportation emergency. From the initial 9-1-1 call to the response and recovery, this class covers call taking, dispatching, and the response to a wide variety of transportation emergencies. This class will cover skills and techniques for call taking, dispatching, and progressive coordination of transportation emergencies. From the private plane crash to the multi-car pile-up on the interstate, we'll use a combination of case studies and scenario-based training to make each event realistic.
